DESCRIPTION
The L4946B is a quad output low drop voltage
regulator. The four outputs are a low drop 10V at
125mA (VO1), a 8.5V at 250mA (VO2), a 5V at
200mA (V_O3) and a low drop 5V st-by line at
100mA (VO4).
The IC includes a monitoring circuit to warn if a
low voltage or no voltage condition is occurring.
VO1,2,3 are off during st-by mode.

ORDERING NUMBER: L4946B
The STCAP pin allows the battery voltage to de-
cay slowly giving the µP time to store data. This
IC is designed for supplying microcomputer con-
trolled systems specially in automotive applica-
tions.
